DOLLY PARTON’S SECRET LIFE: INSIDE HER COZY FARM WITH HUSBAND OF 57 YEARS

Dolly Parton, with a net worth of $500 million, and her husband Carl Dean, who prefers to stay out of the spotlight, live a peaceful life on a cozy farm. Instead of indulging in lavish luxuries, they choose a quiet and simple lifestyle away from the hustle and bustle.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Dolly shared that keeping Carl out of the spotlight is a key reason their relationship has endured for so many years. They’ve remained close and content, enjoying their time together on their charming farm.

Dolly Parton says that her husband, Carl Dean, chose her, not her career, and she respects his wish for a quiet life away from the spotlight. Even though people often wonder about Dean because he rarely appears in public, Parton explains that he prefers staying out of the limelight to maintain his peace.

Their relationship is built on mutual respect. Parton values that Dean isn’t jealous of her success and is genuinely interested in her work. His encouragement has been important to her, and they make a great pair.

Dolly and Carl live a peaceful life on their farm. Dean has retired from his paving business, and they enjoy spending time together doing simple things. They go on RV trips, explore Tennessee and Kentucky, and stay at clean motels during their travels. Parton loves these moments, especially after finishing her music tours.

Despite her significant wealth, Parton focuses on enjoying her time with Dean. For their 55th wedding anniversary, they had a modest country dinner at home with a meal prepared by Parton, including chicken and dumplings and Dean’s favorite, pecan ice cream.

Parton also showed off their beautiful home in a YouTube series hosted by Reese Witherspoon. Though they had planned to renew their vows for their 50th anniversary, they celebrated with a simple country dinner instead.

While Parton still performs occasionally, she knows this will slow down as she gets older. For now, she treasures her quiet life on the farm with Dean, valuing their time together away from the public eye.

Fleetwood Mac star Stevie Nicks finally reveals what life changing advice Prince gave to her

She spent the night working on a song that would end up becoming the lead single from Nicks’ 1983 solo album “The Wild Heart” and the single went to No. 5 in the U.S. Billboard Top 100.
After writing her song ‘Stand Back” she asked for a meeting with Prince and 20 minutes later they were introduced to each other for the first time in a studio in Los Angeles.
Nicks said Prince listened to her song, inspired by his “Little Red Corvette” classic and went straight over to the keyboard to start adding his own parts.
He then got up, gave her a hug and left.

“He spoiled me for every band I’ve ever had because nobody can exactly re-create — not even with two piano players —what Prince did all by his little self,” she said in the book “Rock Lives.”
Nicks said as much as she admired Prince, she avoided a romantic relationship with him because she appreciated their musical connection.

Nicks said as much as she admired Prince, she avoided a romantic relationship with him because she appreciated their musical connection.

“I really wanted a musical relationship, and I had smartened up, even then,” she explained. “You’ll break up and never speak again. But he wasn’t interested in just that.”
In turn, Prince’s “When Doves Cry” was inspired by Nicks’ song “Edge of Seventeen.”

The Fleetwood Mac star said that she was heavily into drugs when she collaborated with Prince.
“The eighties were pretty bad drug years for me,” Stevie Nicks told The New Yorker. “And Prince was not very into drugs. And the fact that he ended up being on a lot of pain medication just blows my mind, because he was so against it, and he gave me so many lectures about it.”
The “Gypsy” singer said Prince warned her about her drug use. “I’d talk to him every once in a while on the phone, and we’d talk for hours, and he’d go, ‘You gotta be careful, Stevie.’ And I’d go, ‘I know, I know.’”
Following his death Nicks said, “My sadness is that he did die of an accidental drug overdose. He’s up there looking down, saying to me, ‘Sweetie, I can’t believe it happened either.’”

It seems Prince was right to be worried at the time as Nicks ended up in rehab twice. The singer checked into the Betty Ford clinic in 1986 for her cocaine addiction, and then went to another hospital in 1993 for her addiction to Klonopin, which Nicks said she was over-prescribed.
But in 1986, Nicks spoke to a plastic surgeon about her nose. The doctor told her she had burned a coin-sized hole in her nose from her cocaine abuse.
“I said, ‘What do you think about my nose?’” the singer recalled. “And he said, ‘Well, I think the next time you do a hit of cocaine, you could drop dead.’”
Following her conversation with the doctor, Nicks decided to check into the Betty Ford clinic. The move helped turn her life around and arguably saved her career and her life.
Thank goodness she had a conversation that set her on the right path. It sounds like it came at just the right time.
It is, however, a tragedy that Prince couldn’t get off the harmful opioids that he was on. Nicks’ story just confirms the musical genius he really was and how generous he was with his talent.
He will always be a musical legend, missed by millions.
